Grumman F4F-3S "Wild Catfish"

Post by AW1Steve »

Has anyone done up a mod to add the Grumman F4F-3S "Wild Catfish"? I think it might be interesting to play with it , as well as some of the other float plane versions of planes like the Spitfire and C-47 that were designed but not built. Thanks.

Two other questions. And I apologize for asking them. I've tried (unsuccessfully) to find the answers , but they are probably apparent to experienced "modders" (this is my 1st try). 1) where do I place the art work? I've tried "Art" but that doesn't seem to be working for me. 2) When I loaded the data in for the Wildcatfish , it was recommended as a fighter. That works well, as does float plane. What I'd like is for the plane to be able to replace Kingfishers and Seagulls on tenders and warships (several of the USN tenders have the ability to use them underway). I tried Float fighters , but that somehow only works for the Japanese. Any suggestions?

Thanks again in advance. Thus far the advice has been great , and very helpful. [&o][&o][:)][:)]

AW1Steve: Float Fighters works just fine.

Art: There are 3 places to put the art work. They are A_Plane side, Aptop, Aptop_alpha and First I like to open the strips up in Paint. I will also have the image opened up in paint also. Find an empty slot, get the number of the slot (that will be inserted into the editor under bitmap. Copy and paste the planes into the blank spots.
